apt-get install --reinstall synaptic
or, more forcefully
apt-get remove --purge synaptic
apt-get install synaptic
might do it, I suppose. You will lose any synaptic-specific
configuration with the second (though not apt- or dpkg- wide like
sources.list or pinning)
This sounds like it's some sort of a problem you're already aware of by
the way you describe it; - is there a bug filed for it? I've not seen
this, but I don't use synaptic. How can I reproduce this when I'm back
on my Ubuntu box?
I might not be able to fix it (likely) but I'm intrigued.
